The best Kodak moments of the 2017 winter Eventing season

The Ocala International Horse Trials concluded on Sunday, marking the end of the Florida winter/spring Eventing season. Eventers who are based further North, are now making their way back home if they have not already done so. Moving down to Ocala, Florida or Aiken, South Carolina for the winter months is common practice for eventers on the Eastcoast but now it is time for them to return home.

Currently, eventers are back in the North and putting the finishing touches on their training for the fast-approaching spring CCI events. The Rolex Kentucky CCI4* is next weekend and Jersey Fresh International CCI3* (May 10th-14th) is also just around the corner.

While we anxiously wait for the spring CCI action to heat up, let’s take an adrenaline-packed ride down memory lane to check out some of the highlights from the 2017 winter season…
